Cookware Characteristics Earthenware Porcelain enamel on steel or cast iron Stainless steel ■■ Follow manufacturer's instructions. ■■ Use on low heat settings. ■■ May scratch the cooktop. ■■ See stainless steel or cast iron. ■■ Porcelain enamel bakeware without the metal base may bond to the cooktop if overheated. ■■ Heats quickly but unevenly. ■■ A core or base of aluminum or copper on stainless steel provides even heating. Use flat-bottomed cookware for best cooking results and energy efficiency. The cookware should be about the same size as the cooking area outlined on the cooktop. Cookware should not extend more than 1/2" (13 mm) outside the area. Home Canning Canning can be performed on a glass smooth-top cooking surface or traditional coil element cooktop. When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface cooking areas or elements between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool. ■■ Center the canner on the largest surface cooking area or element. On electric cooktops, canners should not extend more than 1/2" (13 mm) beyond the surface cooking area or element. ■■ Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas or elements at the same time. ■■ On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners to avoid damage to the cooktop and elements. ■■ For more information, contact your local agricultural extension office or refer to published home canning guides. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance. OVEN USE Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times or when it is heavily soiled.
